Ok, I get the idea. If you think you can do better than wget (by having a short timeout for connection and then a longer one for the download) you can write your own download script and require that liquidsoap uses it. An easy first step would be to keep using the normal downloader for the http protocol. Just define a new protocol "check", and replace your URLs "http://foo"; by "check:http://foo";, and associate the "check" protocol with a function that checks if the server is alive and returns its argument (eg. ["http://foo";]) in that case, and returns nothing otherwise (eg. []).
